The Fellowships & Writing Center (FWC) offers workshops throughout the year to facilitate your professional development as a scholar. Our workshops range from informational panels on fellowships and research to interactive sessions in which we work on targeted writing skills or discuss project management strategies.
Workshops and other programming are announced on Engage, in the FWC newsletter On Grants and Prose, and in other Harvard Griffin GSAS communications.
We also partner with the Academic Resource Center and the Mignone Center for Career Success to bring you events such as “What I Wish I Had Known about Summer for PhD Students.”
See upcoming events below or visit the events calendar for more FWC events.
